Thank you,

The code does work, but when you select a child node, and then click next to the [+] on the left it selects its parent. Is there a way to not allow it to?

Matt,

Actually, the are that you have circled is only for the XamDataGrid, and no other elements are there. You can modify this to search for any RecordPresenter (Label,DataRecord,etc). If none is found, you can call a ClearAllCommand. What you will see is the ActiveRecord remaining - it will look as selected, but the SelectedItems collection will be empty. If you want to go around this, you can set the Active Record to null, so that nothing appears selected. Here is the code snippet:

void xamDataGrid1_PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)

        {

            RecordPresenter area = Infragistics.Windows.Utilities.GetAncestorFromType(

                e.OriginalSource as DependencyObject,

                typeof(RecordPresenter), true) as RecordPresenter;

            if (area == null)

            {

                xamDataGrid1.ExecuteCommand(DataPresenterCommands.ClearAllSelected);

                xamDataGrid1.ActiveRecord = null;

            }

            Debug.WriteLine(xamDataGrid1.SelectedItems.Records.Count.ToString());

        }

When I click the area mentioned above it still selects a parent  record or does not deselect an item.

For some reason when a member is clicked, "dgLeft.SelectedItems.Records" is empty. even when I did not apply your code.

        </igDP:XamDataGrid>

                DataRecordCellArea area = Infragistics.Windows.Utilities.GetAncestorFromType(e.OriginalSource as DependencyObject,
    typeof(DataRecordCellArea), false) as DataRecordCellArea;

                if (area == null)
                    dgLeft.SelectedItems.Records.Clear();

Thanks,

Matt

Matt,

I did test this and it was working correctly. Can you please provide the sample that you are using and this is not having the desired effect?

Thanks,

Alex

Thanks for the response,

I have tried what you provided, also by just using "xamDataGrid1.SelectedItems.Records.Clear();" in a button.

Both seem to not work.

Thanks,

Matt.
